D D6add11 D D6add11 4x


Verse 1:
D     D6   D     D6add11 D D6 D D
All of my heroes sit up straight
   Gadd9    D
They stare at the ground
   Gadd9 D D6add11 D D6add11
They radiate
    D        D6       D     D6add11 D D6 D D6add11
Me, I’m mumbling in the kitchen for the sun to pay up
Gadd9    Asus4   D6add11   D D6add11 D
Lonely is a ring on a cold coffee cup

Chorus:
  D6add11  D   D6add11 D
I’m some sick hound
Gadd9    Bm7add11
Digging for bones
   Asus4              Gadd9 D D6add11 D D6add11 D D6add11 D D
If it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone

Verse 2:
  D        D6    D      D6add11 D D6 D D
My hands they were strangers lost in the night
    Gadd9  D      Gadd9   D D6add11 D D6add11
They’re waving around in the dusty light
  D       D6       D   D6add11  D D6 D D6add11
I’m waiting in the wings while the trees undress
Gadd9   Asus4      D6add11   D D6add11 D
Cupping my ear to hear the wind confess

Chorus:
   D6add11   D   D6add11 D
I’m a ghost in the garden
Gadd9    Bm7add11
Scaring the crows
   Asus4              Gadd9 D D6add11 D D6add11 D D6add11 D D
If it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone

Bridge:
  Asus4          Gadd9     D
I’m running from nothing, no thoughts in my mind
   Bm7add11
Oh my heart was all black
   Gadd9     D
But I saw something shine
    Asus4            Gadd9     D
Thought that part was yours, but it might just be mine
    Bm7add11         Gadd9    D
I could share it with you, if you gave me the time

Chorus:
  D6add11  D    D6add11 D
I’m all bloody knuckles
Gadd9    Bm7add11
Longing for home

If it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone

I’m a black sinkhole
   Asus4              Gadd9  D D6add11 D D6add11 D D6add11 D
If it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone
